Beta is a measure of sensitivity to market movements. Correlation measures the extent of linear association between the ETF performance and the index performance. Volatility is the annualized standard deviation of the ETF's monthly returns. Sharpe ratio measures risk-adjusted return, and represents the ETF's return less the risk free rate divided by the standard deviation.

Van Eck Global only serves professional clients in countries where the funds are registered or where funds can be sold in accordance with local private placement rules.

130-Day SEC Yield is calculated daily,
and is a standard yield calculation developed by the Securities and Exchange
Commission that allows for fairer comparisons primarily among bond funds. It is
based on the most recent 30-day period. This yield figure reflects the interest
earned during the period after deducting the fund's expenses for the period. It
does not reflect the yield an investor would have received if they had held the
fund over the last twelve months assuming the most recent NAV.
In the absence of temporary expense waivers or reimbursements, the 30-Day SEC Yield for Market Vectors MSCI International Quality Dividend ETF would have been -5.24% on 03/30/2015.

2QDXU Fees &
Expenses: Van Eck Associates Corporation (the “Adviser”) has
agreed to waive fees and/or pay Fund expenses to the extent necessary to
prevent the operating expenses of the Fund (excluding acquired fund fees and
expenses, interest expense, offering costs, trading expenses, taxes and
extraordinary expenses) from exceeding 0.45% of the Fund’s average daily net
assets per year until 02/01/16. During such time, the expense
limitation is expected to continue until the Fund’s Board of Trustees acts to
discontinue all or a portion of such expense limitation. TER, or Total Expense Ratio, is also referred to as "Net Expense Ratio".

4IIV is an abbreviation for an ETF's intraday
indicative value; it is an estimated fair value of its holdings based on the
most recent prices of its underlying securities and other assets. Intraday
values are typically updated every 15 seconds and should closely approximate
the net asset value (NAV) of an ETF throughout the trading day. ETF intraday
values are calculated by an exchange (e.g., the NYSE Arca) and are distributed
through quote services.

5Dividends are not guaranteed as securities can fall out of favor with the market, or issuer policies and capital resources with regard to dividends may change.

An investment in the Fund may be subject to elevated risks which include, among others, those associated with investments in foreign securities, particularly emerging markets issuers, which include, among others, expropriation, confiscatory taxation, issues with repatriation of investment income, limitations of foreign ownership, political instability, armed conflict, and social instability. The Fund is subject to risks associated with companies that have medium capitalizations. The Fund’s assets may be concentrated in a particular sector or sectors or industry or group of industries, so the Fund may be subject to greater volatility than a more diversified investment. Dividends are not guaranteed as securities can fall out of favor with the market or issuer policies and capital resources with regard to dividends may change.

“Quality” is a measure of certain historical variables used by the Index Provider and is not intended to imply a judgment about the future performance of any Index constituent or the Index as a whole. The funds or securities referred to herein are not sponsored, endorsed, or promoted by MSCI, and MSCI bears no liability with respect to any such funds or securities or any index on which such funds or securities are based. The Fund’s prospectus contains a more detailed description of the limited relationship MSCI has with Van Eck Securities Corporation and any related funds.

Index returns are
not Fund returns and do not reflect any management fees or brokerage expenses.
Investors cannot invest directly in the Index. Returns for actual Fund
investors may differ from what is shown because of differences in timing, the
amount invested and fees and expenses. Index returns assume that dividends
have been reinvested.

The S&P® 500 Index consists of 500 widely
held common stocks covering industrial, utility, financial and transportation
sector; as an Index, it is unmanaged and is not a security in which
investments can be made.

The “Net Asset Value” (NAV) of a Market
Vectors Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) is determined at the close of each business
day, and represents the dollar value of one share of the fund; it is
calculated by taking the total assets of the fund, subtracting total
liabilities, and dividing by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV
is not necessarily the same as the ETF’s intraday trading value. Market
Vectors ETF investors should not expect to buy or sell shares at NAV.

Fund shares are not individually redeemable and will be issued and redeemed
at their NAV only through certain authorized broker-dealers in large,
specified blocks of shares called "creation units" and otherwise can be bought
and sold only through exchange trading. Creation units are issued and redeemed
principally in kind. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in
the secondary market. You will incur brokerage expenses when trading Fund
shares in the secondary market. Past performance is no guarantee of future
results. Returns for actual Fund investments may differ from what is shown
because of differences in timing, the amount invested, and fees and
expenses.

Investing involves substantial risk and high volatility,
including possible loss of principal. Bonds and bond funds will decrease in
value as interest rates rise. An investor should consider the investment
objective, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund carefully before investing.
